The inner context is in Luke 12:37-48. Jesus talks about his coming, and for us to be alert and be watchful. It would seem that servant's describe Christians. When Jesus is talking about the servants in his parable, The John MacArthur commentary, stated the servants describe both true and fake Christians. It is rather unsatisfactory, it is either one or the other, that is what I also want to find out. But most importantly what is the Lord's will? I do not want to end up having the portion of unbelievers and getting many lashes, or even a few lashes out of ignorance (vs.48). Help me out here guys. The Lord could return at any moment, please tell me what his will is. Matthew 25:1-13 may help you.
